Colorado deathcore outfit Crown Magnetar‘s new single “Dead Crown” has made it out, launching online in tandem with a new music video. Dakota Johnson took up directing that clip, with the song earmarked for the group’s third studio album, “The Hollowing Of Godflesh“. Unique Leader Records have a September 25th release date slated for that.
As for this new single, the band’s vocalist Dan Tucker stated:
“‘Dead Crown‘ takes one of the darkest concepts on the record and turns it into one of the heaviest songs we’ve ever written. It’s centered around a crown being surgically driven into someone’s skull until it fuses with their flesh, slowly corrupting them from the inside. The riffs never let up, the drums are relentless, and the ending strips everything back into a primitive, caveman breakdown that is undoubtedly one of the heaviest moments on the record.”
